NO PGA · STANDARD CUSTOMS PROCEDURE

HSN 8475 29 00 (other machines for manufacturing or hot working glass or glassware) is not covered by a Bureau of Indian Standards Quality Control Order and carries no Partner Government Agency clearance requirement at the tariff-line level. Import follows the standard customs procedure: Importer-Exporter Code (IEC), bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Machines for assembling electric or electronic lamps, tubes, or flash-bulbs in glass envelopes may fall under a sibling tariff line within Chapter 84 that carries distinct compliance obligations.

No partner government agency notification covers this tariff line.
A word of counsel

The absence of compliance at this tariff line does not extend to all machinery classified under heading 8475: machines specifically designed for assembling electric lamps, tubes, valves, or flash-bulbs in glass envelopes are separately classified and may attract different treatment on examination. Re-classification by customs to a more specific tariff line triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending resolution. Verify the machine's primary function and design specification against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance here.
